Produktbeschreibung

Benign Childhood Focal Seizures and Related Epileptic Syndromes provides a concise, authoritative guide to all aspects of diagnosis, treatment and management of the three identifiable electroclinical syndromes: rolandic epilepsy, Panayiotopoulos syndrome and the idiopathic childhood occipital epilepsy of Gastaut. These have a high prevalence, probably affecting 22% of children with non-febrile seizures and constitute a significant part of the everyday practice of paediatricians, neurologists and electroencephalographers.
This pocket-sized reference work will be a valuable resource for all those involved in the care of children with epileptic seizures.
